The annual event organised by the committee for Scouts and Guides in Cork took place last Saturday at Farran Woods. Over 500 members took part over four hours in 16 challenge and fun bases. Each group was accompanied by a leader in a supervisory capacity and assisted staff at each base they went to. The weather was kind and held up for the day.
